Attention to Detail

Living space is integral to balanced living for Memory Care residents. Edgewood
Vista’s Memory Care residents live as independently as possible within a smaller,
more comfortable environment specifically designed to decrease anxiety, confusion
and depression. Residents share home cooked meals and stimulating activities in the
family-style dining room with adjoining kitchen. The adjacent great room has a
cozy fireplace for visiting, reading, games or even a nap. There are soothing room
colors and décor throughout.

Residents choose from studio or shared apartments. Each features an open closet and
handicap accessible half-bathroom. Residents are encouraged to bring their own special
pictures, furniture and treasures to make their apartment home. Furnished apartments
are also available.

Memory Cue Case next to each resident’s room are decorated with personal memorabilia
for visual cue to the location of each residents room.

Residents can participate in organized daily exercise, walking outdoors in the courtyard,
games occasional outings, music and other activities. We also tailor one-on-one activities
to meet individual needs.

Edgewood Understands

Alzheimer’s and memory loss affects each individual differently. Our staff members have
ongoing training to understand the conditions and challenges associated with this illness.
Our staff to resident ratio allows us to provide more personal attention and help residents
maintain daily living skills.

As people lose the ability to learn new things, Edgewood staff members reaffirm what
residents do remember to help improve self-esteem and reinforce positive experiences.
Residents may assist in activities such as meal preparation, cleanup, folding laundry and
other tasks.

The best testimony to our success comes from the residents, who routinely show increased
interest in life, participate in planned activities and recreation, and make new
friends.

You or your loved one will enjoy life fully, and when you need us we’ll always
be there. That’s our promise to you.
